Mr. President. no one in the Senate has a greater respect for the judgment of the Senator from Oregon than have I. but the bill to which I have made reference is an immigration bill. The Committee on Immigration have been studying this problem for several years. and the hearings held on a similar bill of mine last session lasted for several weeks. even months. It is well known that the hearings at that time were carried so far that they were used in an effort to prevent the bill coming up for passage. I am not referring to the Senator from Oregon in that statement. of course. I am referring to the hearings before the Committee on Immigration. With all the unemployed in this country. there is nothing more important that I know of than consideration of this measure. So far as unskilled agricultural labor is concerned.
